Property Description
**A Brooklyn townhouse to call home, with income potential built in.**
Welcome to 1207 Hancock Street, a legal two-family Bushwick townhouse offering approximately 2,565 square feet of interior space, five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a private backyard, full unfinished basement, and the flexibility to create a home that works for the way you live.
Set on an approximately 19 by 100 foot lot and delivered fully vacant, this classic Brooklyn townhouse is currently arranged with a spacious garden and parlor owner's duplex and a separate two-bedroom residence above, creating an ideal opportunity for a buyer who wants the space and privacy of townhouse living with the added benefit of potential rental income.
The owner's duplex provides generous room to spread out. The garden level features a large living room, dedicated dining area, kitchen, full bathroom, laundry room, and direct access to the backyard. Step outside to a private outdoor space with room for dining, entertaining, gardening, play, or simply creating your own retreat in the city.
Upstairs, the parlor level offers three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and additional flexible space that can easily serve as a home office, nursery, dressing room, or den. The layout offers the separation increasingly important for working from home, growing households, and multigenerational living.
The separate top-floor residence features two bedrooms, a living room, dining room, kitchen, full bathroom, and in-unit laundry. Previously rented for $3,350 per month, it provides an established rental history and the potential to help offset the cost of ownership while maintaining privacy between the two residences.
A full unfinished cellar adds substantial storage and utility space being about 800 SF with 8 foot ceilings, while the approximately 19-foot-wide footprint and three residential levels provide the scale and versatility buyers look for in a Brooklyn townhouse.
For those thinking longer term, the property also presents an opportunity to update, personalize, and add value over time. Investors and owner-investors will appreciate the two-family use, vacant delivery, rental history, and additional potential subject to applicable zoning, permits, and approvals.
Located in Bushwick, 1207 Hancock Street offers access to neighborhood restaurants, cafes, shopping, parks, and multiple subway options, including the L and J lines nearby, connecting you throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan.
Whether you're searching for a Bushwick townhouse, a Brooklyn two-family home, a home with rental income, a multigenerational property, or simply more room and private outdoor space, 1207 Hancock Street offers something increasingly difficult to find: the ability to live well today while creating value for tomorrow.
